The Legislature of the State of Oregon has in ORS Chapter 197 delegated the responsibility to local governmental units to adopt regulations designed to promote the public health, safety, and general welfare of its citizenry. Therefore, the city council of city of Lyons, Oregon, does ordain as follows. [Ord. P , 2010; Ord. P , 1988.] Findings of fact. A. The flood hazard areas of the city of Lyons are subject to periodic inundation which could result in loss of life and property, affect the health and safety of our citizens, and cause disruption of commerce and governmental services, extraordinary public expenditures for flood protection and relief, and impairment of the tax base, all of which adversely affect the public health, safety, and general welfare. B. These flood losses are caused by a greater than normal volume of water and by the cumulative effects of obstructions in areas of special flood hazards which increase flood heights and velocities, and when inadequately anchored, damage uses in other areas. Uses that are inadequately floodproofed, elevated, or otherwise protected from flood damage also contribute to the flood loss. [Ord. P , 2010; Ord. P , 1988.] Statement of purpose. It is the purpose of this chapter to promote the public health, safety, and general welfare, and to minimize public and private losses due to flood conditions in specific areas by provisions designed: A. To protect human life and health; B. To minimize expenditure of public money and costly flood control projects; C. To minimize the need for rescue and relief efforts associated with flooding and generally undertaken at the expense of the general public; D. To minimize prolonged business interruptions; E. To minimize damage to public facilities and utilities such as water and gas mains, electric, telephone and sewer lines, streets, and bridges located in areas of special flood hazard; F. To help maintain a stable tax base by providing for the sound use and development of areas of special flood hazard so as to minimize future flood blight areas; (Revised 4/15) 15-4
5 Lyons Municipal Code G. To ensure that potential buyers are notified that property is in an area of special flood hazard; H. To ensure that those who occupy the areas of special flood hazard assume responsibility for their actions; and I. To manage the alteration of flood hazard areas, stream channels and shorelines to minimize the impact of development on the natural and beneficial functions of the floodplain. [Ord. P , 2010; Ord. P , 1988.] Methods of reducing flood losses. In order to accomplish its purposes, this chapter includes methods and provisions for: A. Restricting or prohibiting uses which are dangerous to health, safety, and property due to water or erosion hazards, or which result in damaging increases in erosion or in flood heights or velocities; B. Requiring that uses vulnerable to floods, including facilities which serve such uses, be protected against flood damage at the time of initial construction; C. Controlling the alteration of natural flood plains, stream channels, and natural protective barriers, which help accommodate or channel flood waters; D. Controlling filling, grading, dredging, and other development which may increase flood damage; and E. Preventing or regulating the construction of flood barriers which will unnaturally divert flood waters or may increase flood hazards in other areas. [Ord. P , 2010; Ord. P , 1988.] Article II. Definitions Definitions. Unless specifically defined below, words or phrases used in this chapter shall be interpreted so as to give them the meaning they have in common usage and to give this chapter its most reasonable application.
